estate commonly known as the Hermit
age. John Quincy Adams was a

at that time was a large sum. James
Monroe was SO poor in his old age
that he became. the guest Of his SON.
in-law, Samuel L. G%ouverneur, in New
York, where he died. Madison was
more successful in taking care of his
money, and left his widow a property
which enabled her to live handsomely
in Washington till the end of her
days. Jefferson passed his, last days
in much distress, and was really afraid
that his place would be sold by the
sheriff. He was an object of public
charity and subscription was opened
in his behalf in New York, but his
Heath occurred so soon that the benev-
client effort was not required. Old
John Adams left an estate worth $780,
600. WashingtonRwas a rich maj for
his day, his Wealth being solely due to
marriage. Mount Vernon vas not a
productive property, but Mrs. Custis
brought him aslarge fortune which she
inherited from her first husband.

General Grant is estimated at $780,

President since Buchanan. Hayes is
not rich, though in a well-to-do con;
dition. Andy johnson and Abraham
Lincoln each left $4,000. Frank
Pierce entered the White House poor,
but went back to Concord worth
$50, 900. Willard Fillmore made a
snug fortune out of the law, and was
comparatively rich when he became
our President. General Taylor saved
his army salary, and vas in independ-
ent circumstances when elected to the
presidency. He held the Office hardly
a year and a half, and left a property
worth $50, 900. Tyler was a bank
rupt when the death Of Harrison made
him President and he married a for

OF office rich man, but he became a
leader in the Confederacy and his
property was sunk in the general ruin
occasioned by the war. James K.
Polk had good opportunity to make
money before his election, and he was
al economist by nature. He left
$500 O Martin Van Buren, was
the richest of all our Presidents, his
estate being estimated at $500, 900.
He made money as a lawyer and also
as a politician, and his real estate

row. Tho wheel will turn, and they
who are on the top will 60 down. and
those who are down will como up. Job
expressed the theistic idea of life when
he said: Shall we receive good at tho
hand of the Lord, and shall we not re-
ccive evil alsoP" We ought to DO will
ing and expect to take our turn-to
have our proportion Of burdens and
disappointments. And when we sue.
coed for time, instead of becoming
proud and self-confident we should
be humble and prepared for adversely.
I asked man who had wrecked his
prospects in life by dishonest spccula-
tons, what started him on such ca
reer. His reply was: when mere
boy, saved my pocket-money and
bought lottery ticket. 1t won prize.
That success made mo believe that
was lucky. Idespised honest, patient
industry, and determined to get rich
by my wits. I became gambler in
stocks, I sailed mines. I learned all
the tricks by which values are manip-
ulated. l have made millions Of
money, but l have lost it all. The
worst thing that can happen to a
young man is to win the first game of
cards that he plays for money. or his
first bet on horse-race. or prize on
his first lottery ticket"
There is something to be sought and
secured in this life that is worth great
deal more than what the world calls
success. It's peace of conscience. 1t
is the feeling that we have tried to 10
our duty and to please our Heavenly
Father. This we can have in obscure
ty and in poverty. God is often served
best by those who have tho least Of
worldly good. This example Of cheer.
fulness and fidelity amid privations
and disappointmcnts reminds all who
see them Of the power of faith and Ct
the blessedness of ahope that is full Of
immortality and eternal life. Iwoull
not discourage any one who wants to
succeed in any honorable calling. II
is our duty to ourselves and to God 10
do tho best we can. But I want to
warn my readers. especially those who
arc young, against seeking success for
its own sake and as the beginning Of
a selfish career. Such success is too
often like the rainbow bubble-when
it is largest and brightest it is just
ready to burst. Obadiah O!dscAoo!. in
